There have been scandals around bingo rooms in the past. One operator was caught never paying a large pay-out. Hopefully it all is cleared up now. But several bingo rooms were closed by the Gaming Control Board, and a large one was forced to sell. That one morphed into the Palace Station. There are not many bingo rooms around any longer. I do not know of any on the strip at all. The Station Casinos chain of casinos have them. There may be a couple more somewhere, but I am not aware of them. To me it is just a game, not gambling at all. I say that for a simple reason. There is nothing you can do that would affect the outcome of a game. In blackjack you can ask for a card, in dice you will roll them and so forth. Not bingo, just fill in the numbers that are called and hope for the best. But, it is a pleasant way to spend an hour without losing too much. Let me know what you think. Station casinos actually started out as a bingo parlor and morphed into Palace Station. http://www.palacestation.com
